Teaching Matters
Grandpa Juan's Shoebox is an application used to help instruct New York City schoolchildren in the difference between Primary and Secondary Sources.

Each artifact inside the shoebox can be enlarged and examined in detail. Then the student is asked to choose whether the resource is Primary or Secondary.

Each artifact was graphically simplified down to its essence.

Can you tell which artifacts are primary and which are secondary?

The biographical artifact.

The birth certificate artifact.
The diary artifact.
The encyclopedia artifact.
